There is a conflict between industrial costs reported here and Eurostat numbers. According to the Wiki page industrial electricity costs have been rising. Eurostat data reports that prices peaked in 2009 and have fallen each following year. About 12% in total.
http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/tgm/table.do?tab=table&language=en&pcode=ten00114
Additionally, residential prices are 3x US prices, not 4x. Current Germany residential electricity is $0.36 and July, 2013 US average was just over $0.12/kWh.

Broken reference link, the 3rd one: ^ Electricity in Germany, EIA, Accessed December 7 2008. URL is
http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cabs/Germany/Electricity.html
Just passing through, not sure how the Wikipedians handle such things, but didn't want to just delete it.

I was wondering how the article can say only 1.6% of Germany's energy use is derived from renewables in 2008, but in the article on Renewable energy in Germany, it says that as of 2007, renewables accounted for 14% of their energy needs. This seems very discrepant.

The renewable energy page says as of 2008 Germany produces 15% of its electricity from renewables, not that it produces 15% of its energy from renewables. I'm not sure that that accounts for all of the difference, but since automobiles still mostly run on gas it certainly is intuitive that factoring them in would increase the portion coming from non-renewable sources.

Can someone find a new pie chart for the renewable energy. It is from 2009 and there has been significant change in the last three years. Solar has for example gone from 10 GW in 2009 to over 30 GW in 2012.

The table includes "Mtoe = 11.63 TWh, Prim. energy includes energy losses that are 2/3 for nuclear power", when it should be for nuclear, coal, oil, and gas boiler. Nuclear is not an exception, and should not be treated as such.

How could nuclear power have accounted for 23% of electricity production, renewables for a bit under 20%, hydro+wind for 60% of that and yet nuclear account for 11% of energy production compared to 1.5% for hydro+wind?
This is not consistent unless almost all nuclear is used for things OTHER than electricity (which is not the case) or there were doublings and halvings of these various energy sources during 2009-2011 (again, not the case).
One of these two sources is false.

Can we get a definite inclusion of this in the article.
Is it true that 74% of Germany's power is from renewable energy or is it a blatant falsehood and the vast majority (over 2/3rds) of Germany's power comes from imported energy from nuclear and coal/gas/oil countries?
The factual statement should be included in the article rather than weasel words.

- The share is far lower. Renewables are predominantly for electricity production, the shares of which are available at
https://www.energy-charts.de/price.htm
, amongst others (this is a site run by the non-for-profit reasearch Fraunhofer, with data supplied by the network operators and energy trade exchange. Any statements regarding renewable shares should in my view only refer to electricity, as that is the only part in which reliable data will be continuously available. I doubt that biofuels data is widely available (don't know any source and there is no central trading point or similar at which such data could be gathererd)

"6 times cheaper than in Germany"... The footnoted references states that electricity in Moses Lake, Washington, next to the Hoover Dam, costs $0.03/kwh vs $0.18/kwh in Germany. The price in Moses Lake does not reflect average electric prices in the U.S.

Most of the statistics in this article are between 2 and 5 years old and need to be updated. I will tag the relevant data as such.

I feel like the timeline showed the percentages better - the graph makes it difficult to see the percentage change each year. Can you consider reverting back?

I changed the graph to a bar chart with values shown. Is it ok like this? I would prefer to keep the Graph template since this is the standard way to display graphs in wiki, and it's easier to maintain. --
